Rappahannock News, September 25, 1975

County planning maps accepted SEVEN planning maps, the first step toward Rappahannock’s comprehensive plan, were reviewed and accepted by Rappahannock’s Planning Commission members Wednesday night, September 17. The maps were drafted' by the Piedmont Environmental Council of Warrenton and were donated to the county by the Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection. The maps show existing land use and development patterns, soil types, slopes, flood plains, topography, watersheds, roads, forest cover and possible future impoundment sites throughout Rappahannock County. The translucent “Mylar” maps can be overlaid on one another, to indicate, for instance, how much of the existing development is located in some of the best cropland. Jim Marshall from the Piedmont Environmental Council brought the maps for the Planning Commissioners’ comments and recommendations, before the final copies are made. Planning Commission members vigorously defended the maps against Newbill Miller’s charge that the scale of the maps is so small it renders them inaccurate. Detail and accuracy aren’t the point, at least not for these maps, David Fannon said. “These are just to be used as an aid, a guide for comprehensive planning,” he said. Rappahannock can’t afford a set of maps with the scale large enough to be precisely accurate, he said. Fanning Baumgardner said Miller might be confused by the difference between a comprehensive plan and zoning maps. “In a comprehensive plan you don’t pinpoint, in a zoning ordinance you do,” he said. “These maps just show what kind of a county we have, not what you can do (in terms of land use),” he said. RLEP to appeal powerline ruling THE Rappahannock League for Environmental Protection, Inc. has given its attorneys the green light to appeal to the Virginia Supreme Court a State Corporation Commission decision permitting giant new powerlines to be built across Rappahannock County. The unfavorable SCC opinion, handed down last May, was received last Friday in Richmond by RLEP President Philip Irwin, who has led the three-year fight against Vepco. RLEP sought to preserve the countryside from the threat of environmental damage posed by the powerlines by requiring that they be built alongside Vepco facilities in existing corridors. RLEP attorneys will argue that the SCC failed to give sufficient weight to evidence showing that existing corridors are both reliable and economical alternatives to new high voltage transmission towers. New corridors are not needed to serve consumer interests and threaten unnecessary damage to Rappahannock’s landscape and agriculture, the league contends. IN authorizing the appeal, RLEP has accepted additional liabilities amounting to about $6000. More than $2000 of this is a direct fee to the SCC which, unlike Virginia courts, charges substantially to transfer the commission record to the supreme court for hearings on an appeal. The 4000-page RLEP record was developed during formal hearings two years ago. THE advantage of these maps is that they give you an overview of land use, soils, slopes, topography, watersheds throughout Rappahannock, all at one time. The zoning maps, which are large enough scale to be accurate, follow one another in a 40-page book. With those, persons can’t get an overall look at the entire county from one map, he explained. A quick glance at these maps could give an indication about a general area, then you could refer to the zoning map. Pete Luke thought the maps accomplished what he hoped they would. For one thing, one of the maps shows existing platted subdivisions. “We’ve never before had this on a map. You could look it up in the clerk’s office, but you didn’t have it out before you. The maps might not be completely accurate, but they did give an indication of where the development *in Rappahannock is going. Most See Page 9 House Tour THE 18TH ANNUAL HOUSE TOUR to be held in Rappahannock County on October 18 and 19 will be sponsored by the Rappahannock Historical Society in conjunction with the Dried Flower Arrangement Sale sponsored by the Episcopal Churchwomen of Bromfield Parish. The Tour will feature two log cabins, a pre-Revolutionary era home and a modern dwelling. Mountain Green,.home of many generations of Millers is situated in Harris Hollow (Route 622) and is owned by Capt. and Mrs. George H. Sharp. Here tea will be served both afternoons starting at 2 p.m. On this property an old log cabin will be open for tour. The other cabin is owned by Mr. and Mrs. Robert Johnson and is situated in the Old Hollow (Route 600) about three miles from Sperryville. This was reconstructed from logs from chestnut trees which stood in the Ghost Forest of Shenandoah National Park. The architecturally interesting modern dwelling is the home of Mr. and Mrs. Waldron O’Connor and is located on Long Mountain (Route 626), overlooking Tiger Valley and the Blue Ridge Mountains. Mountain Green, the home of Capt. and Mrs. George Sharp in Harris Hollow will be one of the homes open for the eighteenth annual fall house tour in Rappahannock. The mill house on the place will also be open along with some other homes.

Managing Editor Telephone Washington (75-3349 State cutbacks VIRGINIANS5 everywhere can sympathize with Governor Godwin’s dilemma in trying to balance the state’s budget at a time when revenues are falling short of what was anticipated, and they can appreciate keenly his determination not to raise taxes. But it is not so easy to understand why he chose to take such a big bite out of what the state sends to localities for support of education, in his efforts to economize. According to one report, the Governor said it was either that or firing a lot of state employes. If it were truly a choice between bureaucrats and education, it’s our guess that many Virginians would have made a different choice. Also galling is a reduction of state contributions to education while state “mandated” programs for “excellence” remain. Without going into the merits of the state’s standards of educational ex cellence, the financial pressures these standards impose on local taxpayers cannot be ignored. IT IS one thing to want to achieve more or less equal educational opportunities for all Virginians, no matter what part of the state they may live in, and it is quite another matter not to provide sufficient state funding to help achieve these standards. Local property taxes can be pressed only so far, and there are many indications, even in rural counties such as Rappahannock, that limits are being approached—if they haven’t already been exceeded! Either the State of Virginia will have to stand more firmly by its own “standards,” in the form of adequate financial assistance, or the state w ill have to grant to localities greater flexibility in raising revenues. □ Local pony clubbers winners in Richmond TWO MEMBERS of the Rappahannock 4-H Pony Club participated in the State 4-H Horse Show held in Richmond in conjunction with the State Fair September 18, 19, and 20. Nina Metzinger and Pete Aylor, both of Sperryville, did well in competition in a large field. Nina Metzinger took a first in stable management and placed third in fitting and showmanship. She captured fifth in a jumping class and in the small hunter horse division, riding Cutty Sark. Nina Metzinger took a first in stable management and placed third in fitting and showmanship. In the Small Hunter Horse Division on Cutty Sark, she placed fifth in one jumping class and seventh in another. Both were 3 1/2 foot jumps. PETE AYLOR, riding Mighty Fine, received a sixth place ribbon showing over fences at 3 1/2 feet in the Small Hunter Horse Division. He also won a third place ribbon in fitting and showmanship and a first in stable management. There were some 350 horses showing in the State Fair and 36 competing with Pete and Nina in the Small Hunter Horse Division. □ Fire school dates THE ANNUAL fire school sponsored by the Rappahannock County Fire and Rescue Association is scheduled for the first two weekends in October at Amissville.

I am not. as Mr. Harris purports to be, an expert on corporate finance and the inner workings of the Virginia Electric and Power Company. Nor am I, at the moment, interested in discussing whether putting marijuana smokers and “people.. .filching food from a chain store” in jail destroys equal justice under the law. What I take exception to in Mr. Harris’s letter is his implication that Senator George Aldhizer II, who is up for re-election this year, is somehow guilty of a conflict of interest because his law firm represents Vepco. I challenge Mr. Harris to cite one instance in which Senator Aldhizer has used his considerable power in the State Senate to promote Vepco’s interest. I think it noteworthy that, in the one example cited by Mr. Harris, Senator Aldhizer voted against Vepco’s interest. Also, it is interesting that one of the other legislators attacked by Mr. Harris, Delegate J. Marshall Coleman of Staunton, is chief sponsor of legislation that would tighten up disclosure and registration requirements for all lobbyists, including Vepco. in my opinion, ueorge Aldmzer has done an excellent job in representing the people of this district. It is particularly vital that he be returned to the next session of the General Assembly, when the committee he chairs, Commerce and Labor, will be charged with considering the issue of collective bargaining for public employees. If this legislation passes, as it well might if men like George Aldhizer are defeated this fall, the cost of government and the resultant burden on the taxpayers of Virginia will- rise astronomically. I wonder what Mr. Harris, who is so quick to champion the cause of the people when a power company threatens to de crease the value of his property, thinks about this issue. I think that Mr. Harris would be well advised in the future to refrain from making unsubstantiated innuendos. Douglas K. Baumgardner Washington, Va.

T H E L I T T L E F 0 X 11., lowin’] •fuesl AfTl£ 5 Rich farmland Regional plan emphasizes agriculture By PEKAY PETTUS A DRAFT of a regional land use plan was presented as a “slide show” to Warrenton’s Planning Commissioners at their meeting September 16. Kenneth Oestreich, the new land planner for the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District Commission, thought Warrenton’s planners saw enough of maps and charts, so he showed slides of mountains, open fields, historic buildings, wildlife and cartoons, as well as maps and charts. Oestreich emphasized that the first land use plan for the five county planning district is at this stage just a draft; the district planning commissioners and local governments have another year to review it and add their comments before the final plan is approved. Some of Oestreich’s comments during the slide show follow. The five counties of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District have “some of the finest agricultural land in the world,” Oestreich said, a point he stressed throughout his narration of the slides. “The district also has a variety of wildlife, a long historical heritage;” names like Washington, Madison, Lee and Jackson are synonymous with our past. We have a large number of historical buildings and Civil War battle sites. There are something like 566 buildings in this district listed by the Virginia Historic Landmarks Commission. Not all of these are ‘registered,’ but they have been studied and listed by the Landmarks Commission. Fifteen buildings within the district are on the National Register of Historic Places. “THE SCENIC beauty, the agricultural heritage, the historical heritage and the diversity of wildlife all come together to give the district a unique lifestyle that the people of the district are on the whole very proud of and they d like to keep. “There is a threat to all of this, and that’s the spectre of uncontrolled, unplanned growth. I think we only have to go as far as Manassas to see what can happen to a place that doesn’t control its growth. Growth can eat up our prime farmland with townhouses and highways, growth can destroy the scenic beauty of our mountains. .. “It’s predicted that over the next 25 years, the United States will have to build a home, school, factory, power plant, etc. for every one that’s in existence today. In other words, in the next 25 years we’re going to have to build everything that’s been built in the United States over the past three centuries. “The Planning District itself is the fourth fastest growing planning district in the state. This is a computer projection of urban regions in the United States in the year 200,” Oestreich said, pointing to a slide showing the eastern United States in which green coloring indicated the areas to be within the urban corridor by the year 2000. Much of the Rappahannock-Rapidan Planning District was included. This projection is based on a two child per family rate. There’s new evidence to suggest the birth rate is climbing up again, he said. “But the main point of this survey, though you could argue with the accuracy of the prediction, is that we’re going to see a lot of growth in the next 25 years and we should begin thinking about what we’re going to do with it. ’ ’ “THE QUESTION is, will growth take place in the existing cities and towns or on the edges of these towns or will it be allowed to plop down in the middle of prime agricultural land, or important environmental areas. A government study on sprawl shows that not only does this kind of growth destroy resources but it’s also bad for the tax dollar.

Well, everyone plans. The average person plans when to buy a new home or a new car or someday to send his children to college. “Land use planning has been basically done by local government. Some of them have done a better job of it than others, and some haven’t done the job at all. What we’re trying to do is look at the problems of growth and land use at a regional perspective. Of course, when you talk about planning, you always raise the spector of controls. No one wants to have the slightest constraints on what he can do with his own property. But people have to realize no man’s land is an island. What people around you do with your land, drastically affects the value of your own land... “It’s been determined, for instance, that the average regional See Page 6 Who said the days of the great cars were over? 1976 Pontiac Grand Prix Another great one from Clore 197B Pontiac Sunbird Another greet one ° from Clore 1976 Pontiac LeMans Sport Coupe Another Great one from Clore 197B Pontiac Formula Firebird Another great one from Clore CLORE PONTIAC CO.

•V ;>x.Regional plan draft stresses farms From Page 3 shopping center creates enough additional runoff to force downstream property owners to construct some $500,000 in flood control structures. Of course, a large polluting industry like they have over in Front Royal can make life, if not unbearable, just not very nice...” “AND OF course an additional problem is that construction of a second home development on adjacent property can make your taxes so expensive that you can no longer afford to stay on the land. “I was attending one of the Plan rung Commission meetings in Maaison County and there was a gentleman there who couldn’t understand how come the Planning Commission was putting restrictions on what he could do with his land. He thought ‘My grandpappy didn’t have any restrictions on what he could do with his land.’ “The chairman of the Planning Commission pointed out that John Stuart Mill had said ‘Liberty is the right to swing your fist until you hit somebody else in the nose.’ And our noses are a lot closer together now than they were in his grandpappy’s day. “I’d like to take that analogy and go back a step further, back to his great-great grandpappy’s time in the colonies. Back then I think you would have found that controls on land use were pretty restrictive. More restrictive than what we have today. “Virginia for example had strict building codes. They told the farmers how much of each particular crop you could plant on your land. Otherwise, everyone would plant all their land in tobacco and no one would bother to grow food. “They also had laws requiring everyone to plant ten silk trees, which they thought would make the colonies self sufficient in silk. I Tn/^nr hool th romilatinnc thpv haH severe legislation, requiring that every landowner plant trees, because they thought trees were more healthful than a household that didn’t have trees. They required that cemeteries be built far outside of town, on the mistaken belief that the cemeteries gave off mysterious vapors.” MASSACHUSETTS Bay Colony had laws similar to modern day zoning, to determine where industries such as candle makers and slaughter houses, which caused substantial pollution, should be located. “It’s in looking at planning this way that we propose this regional plan. We’ve looked at a number of resources and problems of the district....” Flashing up a slide of soil types within the five county districts, Oestreich noted that the Warrenton Planners couldn’t see the map but so well from their seats, but from all the soil information at their disposal, the planners compiled several different maps indicating the “development potential of the region,” evaluating the appropriateness of soils for buildings with septic tanks and build1_U_..r/x uigo nivu wuovinvmoj • found is that the suitability for development without sewers in the planning district is with moderate limitations to very severe limitations. In other words, there is nowhere, looking at a regional perspective, not looking at the actual site, that is actually good for development without sewers... “We also examined the suitability of the soils for large scale recreation, like lodges or campgrounds. There are areas in the district in which the soils are very good for this type of development, particularly around the area of Lake Anna.

The band of yellow (on the slide map) that runs from Madison right up through northern Fauquier is some of the best crop land in the world. This is also an area that’s likely to receive a substantial amount of growth in the future.” “THIS cropland is valuable to the district, not so much because of the number of people employed, because farmers don’t employ a lot, but in terms of the dollars put into the economy. I was talk- - ing to the manager of Beauregard Farms in Culpeper and he said that their farm, plus the farm they own in Rappahannock County, put over $200,000 a year ipto the district economy, in wages, and purchases of feed and equipment, not including capital improvements. Of course, agriculture is also important in that it’s a $21 billion dollar a year export for the United States, dollars which are badly needed to pay for imports like oil. “There’s also the problem that as good agricultural land goes into development, less productive land is brought into agriculture, which raises the cost of production, the cost of the food to the consumer and increases the cost of soil conservation programs... II V U1JU V/AUII1111VU UIV VA1DHI land uses within the district. And growth is going everywhere, particularly following the state highways—like this picture in Orange County, seven homes built along the road, cutting into the farm behind it.. .There’s also a great deal of land in the district that’s been subdivided but has never been built on. And of course there’s the potential that this land could be developed in the near future... “We also plotted all the existing community facilities within the district, fire departments, schools and libraries. We feel these are important because so often planning relies for controls on community facilities for one way of encouraging growth to go where you would like it to go.

According to a release from the ABC, most of the increase in profits came from a one percent markup introduced in August 1974. Price increases imposed by the distilleries which were passed on to the consumers also increased ABC’s nrnfits • Redistribution of ABC profits is based on the town or county’s population regardless of whether liquor is sold there or not. Population figures are based on the 1970 census. Distribution will be about $4.16 for each person in the county or town. THIS year, the Fauquier County treasury will receive $89,829. Loudoun County will receive $116,542. Clarke County’s share is $25,587 and Rappahannock will receive $20,827. Prince William County will get $373,937 in ABC profits. Warren County will receive $29,473. The town of Manassas will get $42,956 and Manassas Park City will receive $28,826. Berry ville’s share is $6522 and Boyce will get $1,571.

County planning maps accepted From Page 1 important, they indicate where sub divisions have already been platted and thus where development was most likely to take place in the near future. He agreed with Baumgardner and Fannon, the maps did exactly what the planners had expected them to, they provided an overall picture of Rappahannock. Jim Marshall from the Piedmont Environmental Council acknowledged Newbill Miller’s complaint. “There is a valid question of scale,’’ he said, but for the job that was requested by the planners and RLEP, “I can’t imagine a more appropriate scale.” Marshall said he didn’t know of a comprehensive plan with a larger scale. Marshall added that he thought Newbill Miller was sitting a bit too far away to pass judgement on the question of scale. “IF THIS county had only three predominant soil types, this scale would be okay,” Miller said. But Rappahannock has so many variations of slopes, flood plains, soil types, a map had to be large or it was no help at all, Miller thought. Jim Marshall disagreed. For that very reason Miller had cited, he thought the maps were even more important. “They aren’t useless. You can do no better without spending tens of thousands of dollars on a computer program,” he said. (Pete Luke said, after the meeting was adjourned and some people lingered for a closer look at the maps, that Newbill Miller was looking at the maps from a “private’s perspective” while he and other planning commissioners saw them “from general’s perspective.” The difference, Luke explained, is that “the private wants to know where his foxhole is and the general wants to see where the whole war’s going on.”) FANNING BAUMGARDNER told Jim Marshall he’d thought one of the maps was supposed to include hiking and riding trails, and critical environmental areas, but none had. Marshall said he’d look again at the contract, and if they’d agreed to put the trails and critical en WHY we Have Funerals When someone you know is in this position, take the time to meet the bereaved family and show that you care.

Phil Irwin suggested that the maps be displayed in a prominent place where everyone in the county could come to see them and make comments. He and Pete Luke thought the public should be invited to make written comments. If someone noting something was missing or some particular part of the map was way off, then they could be corrected before PEC made the final draft of the maps. Irwin said he’d like to see powerlines and substations, that is those powerlines large enough to be noted on the U. S. Geological Survey maps, included. Marshall said he’d look into that. Walter Masterson asked if the PEC maps disagreed with the Planning District Nine maps of the area. District Planner Kenneth Oestreich said they looked fine from where he sat. Jim Marshall said Oestreich was welcome to come by the PEC office for closer inspection. DISTRICT Planner Ken Oestreich told Rappahannock’s Planning Commissioners that Madison County was requesting help in opposing a revision in the BOCA code which would allow “second homes” to be built withouta “water closet, bathtub or shower, or lavatory.” Madison Health Department officials and district health officer Robert LeGarde fear nock, and he didn’t mean second homes, are probably lacking some the revised, and more lenient, BOCA code will encourage second home development on Madison’s thin mountain soils and perhaps adversely affect the water supply.

I’ll hold the memories close to me As long as life shall last. Son, Thomas of the plumbing facilities Oestreich mentioned. Oestreich read a letter from Dr. LeGarde in which he expressed the fear that development of the hundreds of recorded lots in Madison County for second homes posed a threat to the water supply, since many of the lots were small and pit privies and wells would be built close together. Phil Irwin asked that the Planning Commission go on record in support of Dr. LeGarde. Pete Luke said he’d like to check into the matter a bit more before county officials write any letter of support. — Pekay Pettus □ CHURCH NOTICE There will be a business meeting at Washington Baptist Church on Sunday, September 28 following the morning services.

A. Fleetwood said, “but exactly how I don’t know.” Fleetwood said there is a difference of opinion among some state educators as to which parts of school budget can be changed as a result of the Governor’s decision. Superintendent 0. A. Norton is at a convention of northern Virginia school superintendents. After he returns on Friday, “we’ll - Home Improvements Culpeper Planing Mill Aluminum Siding Roofing • Guttering Jalousies - Storm Windows and Doors - Floor Covering Ceiling Tile • Aluminum Awnings Williamsburg Paint Wallpaper Swimming Pools 302 S. East St. Culpeper 825-1755 have a better idea of how it’ll affect us,” Fleetwood aid. Godwin's announcement, which came September 19, does not mean all local school districts will be confronted with a five per cent reduction in revenue. But a spokesman for the State Board of Education has said the localities doing the least to fund their schools with local tax dollars will be hurt the most. The lower the percentage of state aid, the less harmful the cut in terms of the local school system’s overall budget. THE CUT reduces state aid to Godwin said the cut was necessary because the economy has failed to improve as rapidly “as the forecasters said it would.” There have been prospects of a $60 million state budget deficit at the end of the 1974-76 biennium, hence Godwin’s “austerity program” for education as well as other state agencies and institutions. “It is not a pleasant decision for me to make,” Governor Godwin said about the school aid cut. “But I think it is prudent and wise.”D Homecoming The annual Homecoming Day at Promise Land Baptist Church will be held Sunday, September 28. Speaker for the 11:30 a.m. service will be the Rev. Robert Pendleton of Flint Hill. After morning services, dinner will be served in the church dining room. The Rev.

Regional plan draft stresses farms From Page 6 go and then put the facilities there. This is particularly true with roads and sewers...” “WE ALSO looked at the existing plans of the local jurisdictions. We were really disappointed that we had to finish the draft of the regional plan now, because Madison and Orange are still drawing up their master plans and Fauquier is gearing up to review theirs. We would have preferred to wait until the local governments had their plans finished, but the state wouldn’t let us wait. So let me point out again that this is merely a draft. We’re certainly willing to go back and change things. “We got the proposed plans of the Highway Depwrtment. Fortunately, there are only two of these proosals that are controversial: '1-66 and the road widening through Sperryville.” Oestreich said that the Planning District staff was too small to adequately review the plans of the Highway Department and evaluate them. “The state also has plans for the district, these are basically the scenic rivers and critical environmental areas. Critical environmental areas include the Appalachian trail, most of northern Fauquier, the Bull Run Mountains, 1 ' -i ~$he, Mittal <j$ribuig CEMETERY MEMORIALS CLORE FUNERAL HOME “The Home of Thoughtful Service" PHONE 825-2361 CULPEPER TRUSTEE S SALE OF VALUABLE REAL ESTATE FRIDAY, September 26, 1975 at 10:00 A.M.

Basically, it includes what I have shown you, critical environmental areas and scenic rivers. I should explain that scenic rivers, as designated on our plan, mean that we consider these as areas of natural value that should be protected through local zoning. It does not necessarily mean we think that these should be part of the state scenic rivers program... “Growth we would like to see go to the existing villages and towns. We’re expecting the Remington to Catlett sprawl that we’re really no more happy about than Fauquier County, but once that sewer goes in, there’s no way you’re going to stop it...’’ “THE PRIMARY focus of the (district land use) plan is to protect the agricultural resources of the district. (Agriculture) gives the district its scenic character and is also its primary industry. The district made it through the last recession relatively well. And I think the reason is that agriculture is such a stable industry. “Other than this, we would like to see additional growth in the recreation industry, both around the Shenandoah National Park and in the Lake Anna region. The district as a whole has a severe lack of local parks and regional parks. There are funds available to local governments to purchase recreational facilities. These funds are available on a basis of need first and next on whether the local jurisdiction has some sort of a plan for recreational parks. Oestreich said the district planning staff is always ready to help local governments “get into something like this.” “We would encourage the district to preserve its historical character, though I’m not a supporter of that very restrictive zoning that tells people what color to paint their doors... “AS FAR AS industry goes, we feel that the planning district, considering its scenic resources and its proximity to Washington, D.C. has a lot to offer and should be very selective in the type of industry that should come in. Only a high pay, low pollution industry - would be an asset rather than a loss. “But of course, the implementation of this plan goes back to the local governments. The planning district is really a guiding agency that was established to help local governments in the field of land use and land use planning which is a rapidly changing field. We’re always getting new information... “In conclusion, I’d just like to say, there’s really nothing more important than land use in determining the quality of life for us today and for our children. The growth we allow over the next 25 years is pretty largely going to determine the face of America.” Mrs. Filkerton Mrs. Della Golden Pilkerton,. 85, of Warrenton died September 17 at Oak Springs Nursing Home..

Autumn, the time of poets, is here AT LEAST a thousand poets have said what millions of people know: North America’s autumn is the best of seasons, unsurpassed on earth. This year the Northern Hemisphere spun into autumn on September 23 at 10:55 a.m. Eastern Standard Time. Twice a year, as the earth moves through space, its axis leans neither toward nor away from the sun and for a brief moment, the sun passes directly over the Equator, the National Geographic Society points out. The two equinoxes mark the beginning of spring and fall. In both hemispheres, day and night are the same length. The term “equinox” comes from the Latin words for “equal night.” Nights gradually become longer than days in the northern hemisphere after the autumnal equinox. As the earth moves onward in its orbit, its northern half begins to tilt increasingly away from the sun. Temperatures drop. Trees take on magic touches of color. Dew is heavy, and then a filigree of frost traces a pattern on the ground to delight the early riser. “IN MAINE,” wrote Thomas Wolfe, “the frost comes sharp and quick as driven nails, just for a week or so the woods, all of the bright leaves, flare up.” James Whitcomb Riley wrote about Indiana where boys could listen to the “husky, rusty russel of the tossels of the corn” as well as the “raspin’ of the tangled leaves as golden as the morn.” Helen Hunt Jackson, the California novelist and poet, added blue to autumn’s palette: “O suns and skies and clouds of June,/ And flowers of June together./ Ye cannot rival for one hour/ October’s bright blue weather.” In New England’s hills, Edna St. Vincent Millay admired the woods ‘‘that ache and sag/ And all but cry with colour!” and Bliss Carman, recalling the fall glory of his native New Brunswick, sang: “The scarlet of the maples can shake me/ like a cry/ Of bugles going by.” To William Allingham “the trees are Indian princes,” while James Russell Lowell found “the swampoak, with his royal purple on... looks like a sachem, in red blanket wrapt.” AUTUMN is a time of activity as well as color. In the country, farmers are busy with the fall | harvest. Some even work at night ' under the glare of floodlights. Squash and pumpkins, apples and cider splash color on roadside stands. The season becomes a time and place apart. “It is the place of howling winds.. .the hard, clean falling to the earth of acorns... the opulence of enormous pumpkins that yellow on hard clotted earth.” a However, not all people are carried away by autumn. William Cullen Bryant had this greeting for the season: “The melancholy days are come, the saddest of the year.” □ Student Social Security regulations STUDENTS 18-22 getting social security checks should report changes in their earnings, school enrollment, and marital status to social security, according to Philip E. Bettendorf, social security district manager in Winchester. More than 680,000 students 18 and over get monthly social security payments because a parent gets disability or retirement benefits or has died. Students can continue to get payments to age 22—or slightly beyond for undergraduates—as long as they remain full-time students and unmarried. “Students getting checks should notify social security immediately if they marry, leave school, or start attending on a part-time basis so we can stop their monthly payments as required by law,” Bettendorf said. Changes in total yearly earnings from part-time or temporary jobs can also affect social security payments to students, he said. PUBLIC AUCTION Sat., Sept. 27 at 12 noon Located on Rt. 702.
